would a Faulty injector cause the car not to crank?

I have a b16 in my crx and I belive one of the injectors have gone bad.

Would that cause the car not to crank.

 

you checked fuel/spark? have you tried using a friends working distributer?

by not crank do you mean that when you turn the key the motor won't turn over or it turns over just wont start?
if it is not turning then i would check to make sure the wire that signals the starter is connected cuz it falls off on my car every now and then. but it will still turn over with the injectors being bad.

if the car is turning over then check to make sure you have spark

 

Well, i KNOW that the injector has gone bad, only 1.

When I turn the key to on, there no CEL, but when I push the clutch in to start, an check engine light turns on. as soon as I let go, it turns off.

I cant check for spark if the motor wont crank.

Dizzy is new,
Cap is new
Wires are new,
Plugs are new.
Rotor is new.

bump, I need to know.

check the starter like previously stated

 

The starter is fine.
I got it tested, its fine.

I know those test machines at autozone dont put a load on the starter. BUT it cranks when I have the harness partialy hooked up.meaning......


the only things I hook up is the Barrel and Square plug of the Passenger side.


I unhook the Barrel plug on the drivers side.

and it cranks like a little *****.

SO the starter is fine.

SO! Back to my org question.

 

once again... check the signal wire to the starter.
the check engine light will always come on when the key is in the run position but the motor is not running.

if it is not cranking over when you turn the key past the run position, then your starter is not getting a signal to turn over meaning that the signal wire is not plugged in.

the motor itself will run on 3 cylinders so if one of the injectors is bad it will still start and run... and and injector will not keep it from turning over but will keep it from starting/running.
